Overview
The boat leaves Tomari Port in Naha and reaches Kerama Shoto National Park in about an hour. Snorkelling is at two or three reef sites around Tokashiki and Zamami chosen for the day's wind and current; sea turtles are often seen in these waters. Lunch is served on board or on one of the islands. Corals must not be stood on or touched, and national park rules apply. The trip takes about 6 hours.
